Where should I put a shape drawable in my Android folders?

Question

I have a .xml file representing a shape and 5 drawable-*** folders (for hdpi, ldp, mdpi, xhdpi, xxhdpi).

Since this is a shape, I assume I only need one copy? Should I create a folder called drawable and place it in there? Or do I need one copy of the shape in each of the resolution specific folders?

Answer 1

Yes, you can have a res/drawable folder, i.e. no suffix. It will be used for all resolutions. You can also use the -nodpi suffix, see Supporting Multiple Screens for details.
